GW: If ever a single individual has been good for the outdoors enthusiasts’ interests, Jim is it.
CODY, WYOMING– Jim Zumbo, former Hunting Editor for Outdoor Life magazine, Book Author, television show Host, and Seminar Speaker, launched a revised website www.JimZumbo.com, to include a new blog and online store. Zumbo’s interest and desire to launch this new site was sparked by an overwhelming number of emails, phone calls, and conversations from dedicated fans, as well as hunting, fishing, shooting, and outdoor enthusiasts with a plea to share his knowledge in a public forum. “I’ve been an outdoor writer all my adult life, and I’m excited to get back into the routine of writing on a regular basis,” said Jim Zumbo. “I think writing is a calling that you never really can leave behind, and I’m looking forward to getting back into it through my blog.”
Zumbo will take his 50+ years of outdoor experiences to educate and inspire others to pursue their passions. In his blog, he plans to share how-to tips through posts & short videos on various topics including hunting, fishing, survival techniques, camping, game processing, and outdoor cooking to name a few. Zumbo will share thrilling encounters, gee-whiz facts, and useful knowledge in the entertaining manner for which he is known through his writing.
The online store features many of Zumbo’s books still available in print, including Amazing Venison Recipes cookbook, To Heck with Elk, Deer, and Moose Hunting, and his favorite, Portraits of Elk Hunting, a coffee table book that focuses on the hunt as seen through Zumbo’s camera and words. Plans to add e-books and additional products are currently underway as well.
Zumbo continues to spend more than 250 days a year traveling – whether to hunt, fish, or as a guest speaker at various seminars around the country. He will blog about his adventures along the way.
In addition to the new site, Zumbo will continue to increase his social media efforts through Facebook, Twitter, and Google+.
I love the guy and what he’s done since the AR remarks years ago. For example, a few years back at a Professional Outdoor Media Association live auction for an AR, he upped the ante by pledging to take the high bidder on a hunt with him. The “gun” sold for over $4,000 with the proceeds going to POMA. Since then, he’s always added fishing or hunting trips for bidders at his personal expense.
Bet he won’t blog drunk again.
Now, JR, that’s not very nice.
